     Commander Sieven Drexler |
Savant's voice softly roused Sieven from his sleep, though it startled him. Still exhausted, he looked to the chronometer on the far wall and noted the time. Two hours ETA to Reor, he computed, then sighed and began forcing himself awake. Still wearing his uniform, now homogeneously wrinkled from his nap, he rose begrudgingly and headed towards the bathroom. "I'll see you in a few minutes, Savant." She cheerfully bid farewell and behind him he could hear her vanish noisily, though he knew she was never really gone--it was her nature. He splashed his face with water from the sink and freshened up the best he could before heading to CIC. "How's the fleet holding up?" he asked as he entered the command center, which had been considerably tidied since he had left for his rest. There was no longer any dangling circuitry or other hazards, though two of the perimeter consoles were burnt out and there was a small crack in the starboard holotable. The tables were still fully functional, however, and they displayed on one side the fleet status and the other new information coming in from Reor'sa. "So far, everyone's hull is in one piece, sir," said an older enlisted officer. "We're 100 minutes from Reor." Sieven nodded and glanced over the Reor system, recalling various elements of the location that would give the Defenders an advantage should Pfhor ships still be active in the area. Hopefully, though, there would be only one worry this day: liberating Reorsans from the doom of the rampant Hunters and once again standing in Reunion Square under a banner of peace and victory.
